Ron Burgundy could be making announcements on your train next week (Picture: Reuters)

The words of Ron Burgundy are unlikely to instill confidence in most train passengers.

But if you hear an announcement from the Anchorman 2 star while travelling on a train next week, don’t be alarmed – he hasn’t commandeered the vehicle.

The messages on Virgin Train services are part of the publicity drive for the upcoming comedy sequel Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues starring Will Ferrell.

Virgin announced the link up on its Facebook page to the delight of several customers who were looking forward to hearing the messages.

The company wrote: ‘Well, Hellooooo, Anchorman’s Ron Burgundy, who has a voice that can make wolverine purr… has recorded special announcements to bring a bit of humour to your journey onboard. The “toilet” one is not to be missed!’
